Answer: Option A

Explanation:

One gene one enzyme hypothesis was proposed by George Wells Beadle in which he stated that one gene directly affects the production of the  single enzyme.

This consequently affects the individual step in the whole metabolic pathway.  

So, a mutation in the single gene will lead to the production of the faulty protein. The step of the metabolism will be affected in which the faulty enzyme will participate.

Why does water dissolve ionic compounds and solar compounds?
masha68 [24]
Water's relatively small size allows it to fit between individual atoms, driving them apart. Water's hydrophobic nature separates polar and non-polar substances. Water's polarity allows it to dissolve ionic and polar compounds.

What do the COEFFICIENTS in a chemical reaction represent?
Degger [83]

Answer:First: the coefficients give the number of molecules (or atoms) involved in the reaction. In the example reaction, two molecules of hydrogen react with one molecule of oxygen and produce two molecules of water. Second: the coefficients give the number of moles of each substance involved in the reaction.

Which phase change has more kinetic energy:boiling or melting?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

the phase change of boiling has more kinetic energy.

boiling is a liquid ---> gas

melting is solid ---> liquid

in a liquid, there is medium kinetic energy but when a liquid is boiled it turns into a gas and gains more kinetic energy, so there is more movement and the particles move freely as there is high KE.

in a solid, there is low kinetic energy as the particles vibrate in fixed positions. a solid gains kinetic energy when it becomes a liquid (melting) and there is medium kinetic energy.

there is a higher amount of kinetic energy when a substance is boiled.

therefore, the answer is boiling.
